Ordinances (Click here to read resolutions in full.)

• Ordinance No. 3156 (First Reading). An ordinance amending Chapter 2, Administration of Stillwater City Code, concerning advisory boards and removing term limits and oaths of office. The Council clarified that advisory board members are not officers and, therefore, are not required to take the State’s oath of office.

Reports from Officers & Boards

• City Attorney requested an executive session.
• City Manager Dan Galloway had three items to report:
• The Code Enforcement Pilot Project in the Westwood Neighborhood was successful, so the City will expand it citywide. The city has redesigned how we do code enforcement and now three code enforcement offices (similar to parking enforcement) will be under the umbrella of the Stillwater Police Department. This will be effective by the end of the month.
• The insurance standard organization, which insurance companies use, has started rating building codes. What this means is if a city is slow to adopt new codes, to lag in code enforcement, or to stay up-to-date with training, it could affect everyone’s insurance rates. The City of Stillwater has been working to improve it rating, which is now Class 4. Class 4 is very good, but he wants to see the Stillwater continue to improve to a Class 3, all the way to a Class 1 He complimented Development Services hard work in achieving a Class 4 rating.
• The City will be introducing Blackboard Connect in Feburary. This allows citizens to opt into a service that allows them to receive phone messages from the city. It’s similar to CodeRed, but sophisticated enough to allow for a wide variety of useful and specialized messaging techniques.
• Councilor John Bartley recalled the rezoning of the Washington School property for the Jan. 19 meeting.
